Today on Colorado Edition: We’ll take a look at this week’s special legislative session, called by Gov. Polis a few weeks ago. We will also learn about the Colorado Supreme Court, as well as the court’s latest appointee, Judge Maria Berkenkotter. We’ll also hear about a number of ongoing water projects in the state that are currently in limbo, and we’ll get a sense of what Colorado skiers can expect at ski resorts this season.

Today’s guests include: CU law professor Aya Gruber, Colorado Sun reporter Jason Blevins, KUNC's statehouse reporter Scott Franz. This episode also features reporting from KUNC's Colorado River Basin reporter, Luke Runyon.
